Seil Sound and Narrows,

On the left the Isle of Seil which is one of the Slate Islands* and across the fast flowing narrows is the mainland at Clachan.
The short pier and slipway in the image foreground was I assume for the ferry which ran before a bridge was built in the late 18th century, This is now known as the Bridge over the Atlantic.

*The Slate Islands are an island group in the Inner Hebrides, lying immediately off the west coast of Scotland, north of Jura and southwest of Oban. The main islands are Seil, Easdale, Luing, Shuna, Torsa and Belnahua. Slates quarried here were exported all over the world,

HWW to one and all.

Beautifully composed in lovely light.........the pier and slipway anchor the frame very well. The light reflected on the water is gorgeous and I love the trees and greenery either side. A brilliant shot sir!

Jolie perspective côtière qui donne l'impression d'être au bord d'un fleuve ! Je pense que la photo est prise à marée basse si un ferry pouvait accoster à cet endroit !
Excellent partage d'un lieu idyllique, Roger ! Passez une bonne journée, HWW !
